Samsung has been more than gracious in how they handled this. A good reminder to point fingers only when the root cause of the problem has been established beyond doubt.
And I find it unfair from Adam Surak and Algolia for not writing the new post explaining that he/they actually wrongly accused Samsung for failing TRIM support.
Even the edits of the initial blog post aren't clear enough that the last edit of it links to the patch that is a solution and that the whole problem isn't what it was initially presented to be.
Because bad news travel faster, I'm sure more people still believe that these Samsung SSDs have something inherently bad, when it was actually the Linux driver problem.
Agreed. Essentially what happened here is that Samsung got enlisted to solve a linux problem that they had no hand in creating because of the bad press. An apology would be nice.
